Mon, 12 Mar 2018 15:39:02 +0000http://www.simpletwig.com/blog/?p=1647#comment-18766In SketchFab edit mode, click Materials tab (top left column), just below this tab is the drop-down menu, just select the material you want to edit. The materials have the same name as Surfaces in ArchiCAD. Note that I am not clicking on the model to ‘select’ a portion of it, but the selection is automatic under the Materials tab. hope this helps and thanks for finding my tutorial.

Mon, 12 Mar 2018 15:34:13 +0000http://www.simpletwig.com/blog/?p=1647#comment-18765You’re using ArchiCAD and exporting as noted? If you miss something in the export it won’t work. Or maybe, in Sketchfab you just don’t know how to select the individual materials. I believe it is a drop down menu.

Thank you for the tutorial.
I have followed the steps But the model has been uploaded as one object and without any materials. When clicking on one object the whole model is highlighted. Do you know anything about this problem?

Wed, 25 Oct 2017 14:30:40 +0000http://simpletwig.wordpress.com/?p=32#comment-17341Jeff Scharver was my pilot at HMA 269.. I was one of his plane captains… I met Jeff in Camp Pendelton Ca when I was going to engine school.. He was a butter bar, and I was a Lance Corporal. Today is a hard day for me and many others who served with Jeff.. I was working with Jeff just prior to him being deployed, funny enough we were talking about hockey, because I played left defensemen in jr high school for my hockey team… We were going over the pre-flight check list together in the hanger at New River. Jeff and I used to go to the smokers at main side, his wife Pati, never really liked the boxing much, but Jeff loved it… Jeff was so full of life, he always had a smile on his face, and no matter what he did he went into his job 100% in everything he did.. Jeff was always clowning around too, for an officer he was a bit of a rebel.. Jeff was loved by his fellow Marines, he would do anything for us, and we would do the same for him.. I was already back from my deployment from Beirut, and Jeff had a million questions, as usual, he was picking my brain.. I remember telling Jeff, about Beirut what I experienced and told him he’d be ok, but what I remember most was how excited he was knowing he was going to Beirut.. Little did we know it then that the BLT would be hit by terrorist and our OIC of the flight line, Vincent Smith would be killed, and we had no idea about Grenada.. Jeff was deployed and I really never got a chance to say goodbye to Jeff, I saw Jeff in the ready room at New River, a few days before he deployed to HMM261, and he was being his playful self, but Capt Miasel and Major Outlaw were having none of it.. That’s the last I saw Jeff… The day Jeff went down, we were all mustered into the Hanger, I was working on a cobra scoping the main rotor head, then we were told that Jeff and Pat Giguere we missing, (Pat) was in Beirut with me, and I also knew Pat very well.. along with Capt Howard and Jeb Seagle who were shot down in number 32 which was my Cobra in Beirut Lebanon.. We didn’t know the details yet, next thing I know, we are putting my cobra I was working on into a C-5 along with another replacement Cobra, and a work party to put the helo’s back together on the airstrip in Grenada.. We didn’t have time to grieve we were working in support of the mission, but is was not a time that we where all enjoying ourselves, we just lost three brothers, we didn’t know how bad Tim Howard was wounded at the time and the mood was awful… I always Remember Jeff and his smile, his enthusiasm, his love for our Marine Corps, and the men he served with.. He was my officer, my pilot, and friend,, I miss him something terrible, but he along with my other pilots taught me a very valuable lesson in life, one that has stuck with me my entire adult life, that Greater love hath no man than this, that a man lay down his life for his friends. I loved Jeff as a brother, I always looked up to Jeff for advise and to set an example, he took me under his wing and kept me straight, he helped me become the man I am today, and I am proud I served along side of him, he was and will always be my pilot, and I am just sorry I never had the chance to say goodbye. Semper fi Marines…

]]>Comment on Accommodating Population Growth for the New City of Tomorrow by Nicholas Buccalohttp://www.simpletwig.com/blog/accommodating-population-growth-for-the-new-city-of-tomorrow/#comment-14496
Sat, 03 Jun 2017 01:23:46 +0000http://www.simpletwig.com/blog/?p=1782#comment-14496You’re right, the population is rapidly increasing, so much so there’s a good chance there will be massive shortages in housing, especially if a city like New York gets flooded with people looking for opportunities. While NYC hovers at around 10 million, it could easily balloon to 20 or 30 million in 15 to 30 years, and that’s not much time to double the capacity of the city. Thanks for the comment.

Most of my articles are rushed and published, doing business being the priority, but it’s always nice when someone comments.
